Something to Declare
Something to Declare by Julian Barnes is ready to stream cover-to-cover on RealAudiobooks.
Barnes’ appreciation extends from France’s vanishing peasantry to its hyperliterate pop singers, from the gleeful iconoclasm of nouvelle vague cinema to the orgy of drugs and suffering that is the Tour de France. Above all, Barnes is an unparalleled connoisseur of French writing and writers. Here Anyone who loves France (or just feels strongly about it), or has succumbed to the spell of Julian Barnes’ previous books, will be enraptured by this collection of essays on the country and its culture.
